This unassuming home on S Lee St hiding behind the trees is actually over 4000 sq ft and sits on a large lot. It’s an Italianate style home built in 1800.

This building at the corner of N Pitt and Queen is a law office and real estate office, but has a great color combination.

The Colonial Market and Fair is an 18th century marketplace that takes place annually on the grounds of Mount Vernon. Food, entertainment, and plenty of shopping. I found an innkeeper’s sign (re-creation) for my office by J. Foster Historic Signs.

The wife and I went to Live at the Library of Congress tonight with some friends. It was a movie themed costume ball, so we were Elizabeth Bennett and Mr. Darcy.

City of Alexandria posted this on a local restaurant. Yikes!

This row of homes on S Fairfax has an extra-wide sidewalk.

While this home looks skinny, Internet real estate sites say it has over 3500 square feet! It was built in 1840 and is clearly haunted. 😉

George Washington’s Town House was where he stayed when in Alexandria for business. This is a reproduction built in the 1960s based on the original and on the same lot. Mick Fleetwood rented it in the 90s while he ran his blues club called “Fleetwood’s”.

These two townhomes on N Fairfax have a rat’s nest of cables in front of it.

Brick work in need of repair at this business.

This stretch of homes on S Pitt St is color coordinated well.

I found the entrance to Diagon Alley on King St.

Vaso’s Kitchen on Bashford Ln is a Greek and Mediterranean food restaurant. They kept the original, historic, and iconic Dixie Pig BBQ sign of the former owners; which opened in 1924.

View towards King St from my attic office. I couldn’t get a picture without the screen showing up. /shrug

This brick wall clearly needs to be shored up.
